I think its time for the most productive player on the defense to take that role over and obviously its JPP.

There's something counter-productive about having a captain who is head and shoulders worse than another player. Also it seems with Tuck as captain the defense tends to take on his personality. Meaning when he plays well the defense plays well but when he decides that he wants to take a week off the whole defense takes a the week off with the obvious acception being JPP.

Last season I said that Tuck should be benched to send a message and this season I'm saying it again. I don't think you can be a good leader from the bench.

My 5 year old son right before the kickoff of the Super Bowl 46: Dad, are the Giants gonna win?

Burier: Yes.

I totally agree that Tuck shouldn't be the captain, but I don't think JPP is ready yet. He is still developing and needs to focus on his own game.

I would go with Boley or Rolle.

I was thinking Boley or Rolle as well. Leaning more towards Rolle. On the field for most snaps and most games. Outspoken. The field plays in front of his position generally. Solid player with diverse roles. Decent candidate IMHO. Could bring a spark.

I'm not sure what is up with our defensive line, honestly. Outside of JPP it seems no one is ever getting any pressure. I don't know if they are hurt, tired or just don't care. I hope they turn things around real quick though..

I don't know who the defensive captain should be but I agree it shouldn't be Tuck, as for JPP I don't think it should be him either because dumping players in a cold tub doesn't set a good example. I don't think any defensive player really stands out in terms of leadership. If you ever watched a Ravens game you see veteran players like Ray Lewis who gets his team fired up before and during the game, I don't know if he's a 'defensive captain' or not but that's what a defensive captain should be doing.

You can't honestly think JPP is the only one on our team, let alone the league that quote on quote, hazes rookies, right?

JPP is no doubt a great player but I'd disagree on nominating him the captain since he needs a little bit more experience in the NFL and he doesn't seem like the leader type anyhow. I'd give the nod to Michael Boley first.
